my boosts are finally saving, that's a plus. I keep hearing the gameplay seems sluggish now, anyone else notice it yet? I'm not.

Played a game of HUT and it was super slow. EASHL is much faster.

I cant speak for HUT as i havent played it yet but EASHL speeds and agility are through the roof. Too much i think for my liking. I liked how before it would take a while before players were able to accelerate to full speed.. now they seem a little too agile... i'll have to play a few more games but it feels like players are weightless now

I think that's how they fix the turning. I remember when the game first came out on the season ticket, the game was pretty slow and people were having trouble turning/pivoting so they tuned the game and the game speed was increased. They need a happy medium between HUT and EASHL.

I think one of the problem with the game right now is the hustle button. When simply using the left stick to move players, the speed is not that bad. However, almost everyone is exploiting the hustle button right now, meaning they move full speed all the time and when doing so, it's really easy to make a full ice rush and to get around defensemen.

I play as a defensive d-man in EASHL and this game feels almost completely broken now, I feel like it has gone back to the NHL12 style of game with this update.
If I poke check I get called for tripping, when I don't get called for tripping the poke check doesn't work at all.
at 6'3" 220 lbs my player is gliding all the time, when I really just want him to settle into a passing lane and he won't do it. It also feels like he has no weight whatsoever.
Forwards seem like they have no trouble poking the puck with effectiveness.
I cant keep the puck on my stick for more than 1 second.
body checking still seems useless (not a big deal to me, because I typically play positional hockey anyway)
I readily admit changes needed to be made to make the game better, but this was not helpful to dmen, maybe it was helpful for other positions.

Not sure if its just me, but last night I deleted my profile, and then reinstalled everything and I guess I am not seeing the gliding, and thought it played a great game, with Penalties also. I played a game and did a coach mode game and thought it really played well. Just a suggestion for some, but not sure if it was just me though.

How do I delete my player profile and create a new one?

Sorry for the newbie question...

Thanks.

I play superstar, with some difficult sliders of my own, and played a game, LA v. FLA... sorry dont remember most of the stats, except, that i won in OT 3-2, tough game, FLA had 6 PP's and I had 4. 10 min per. length. got outshot 39 - 30. it was a great game. i was satisfied with the hitting and the gameplay. Felt ALOT more loose, and the skating is not as "stiff." if anyones interested, i used Blackdragoon27's superstar slider set, and made some tweaks of my own, to what i like, and its been fantastic.
